Leg Day Workout for Women with Dumbbells for Women Over 40
Join in on the leg, booty, hips, core fun!
This workout targets EVERYTHING from the waist down. We train the body in functional movement patterns (hello step-ups & lunges), which in turn will strengthen your muscles for real-life situations.
So, whether you are a walker, runner, hiker, or maybe a wanna-be walker, runner, hiker – this workout will help.
You are also going to LOVE the booty band finisher I have for us at the end!!
George & Bella, my two hound dogs, also make an appearance in this workout. And George shows off his mad skills he’s learned through 11 weeks of obedience classes (note: this sentence is typed dripping in sarcasm).
